    have you ever looked into any of the adhesives they use in autobody. 3m, lord fusor, evercoat and valvoline all make really good products. probly the best would be the evercoat since that one dont take a special gun, just a typical calking gun is all you need.

    Is it wheel hop that's breaking them? If it is, your tranny will probably go also.

    TEG2LOW wrote: I recently built a B18C1 up for a buddy and it ran awsome for 2 months now but last night this thing went haywire. Symptoms: IAB, AIR TEMP SENSOR, TPS CODES and it will only rev to 2500 and sounds like it's bouncing the rev limiter. Compression is up over 240 in all holes, injectors are all hitting, spark is there, and all conections are good. Would one bad sensor cause all three codes to flash?? I tried a extra p72 I had and still did the same thing. Sometimes it will run fine after reseting the ecu but only for short period of time. Any help would be appreciated! THANKS! Have you done any recent work to it and got any of the sensor wiring flipped around? Honda kinda fucked up when they did their wiring and made to many of the sensors have the same plugs. You can get the IAC and the intake temp sensor flipped around, as well as the MAP and the TPS. Most cases if you get the IAC and the intake temp sensor flipped its gonna fry the temp sensor. That's where i'd look first.

    My buddy over at the Glass Guys can do windshields pretty cheap. His name is Cole. As for the tint, it probably will be cheaper to just have it tinted, labor can get pretty expensive when you dont do it yourself. Ry

From what i have seen, the H22's are in the 2-3 also, same with B16a or B18C's. It all depends on what he is going for. K20A2's can easily put 200-230 to the ground with easy modification, as much as a heavily modified B18. Like he said, best route is the D16Z6. Great motor, exellent to turbo. Damn good price. Ry

    the conversion is a hassle and expensive, knock over a semi repair shop and steel their stash.
